Subs:
Evan, Rahul.
Unavailable:
Harrison (Broken Arm), Dan (Cricket), Teddy (Away), Dara (Unknown).
Start with a 4-4-2 (4-Diamond-2) with Ellis holding and Elliot pushing forward.
Rahul will start on the bench due to being out for a few weeks and we want to ease him back in.
Ideally Harry would start on the bench as he wasn't at training, but due to a lack of right-backs, we will need to start him in the match.
Evan will start on the bench (missed match last week) and Lewis will get an opportunity up front alongside Carn.
Kai wants to try playing on the right during this match, so when making substitutions we could potentially bring Rahul on upfront and move Lewis out to the left, with Kai moving across to the right. This is dependant on the strengths and weaknesses of the opposition fullbacks.
